Disinformation Visualization: How to lie with datavis | Visualising Information for Advocacy By Mushon Zer-Aviv, January 31, 2014 Seeing is believing. When working with raw data we’re often encouraged to present it differently, to give it a form, to map it or visualize it. But all maps lie. In fact, maps have to lie, otherwise they wouldn't be useful. Some are transparent and obvious lies, such as a tree icon on a map often represents more than one tree. It all sounds very sinister, and indeed sometimes it is. Over the past year I’ve had a few opportunities to run Disinformation Visualization workshops, encouraging activists, designers, statisticians, analysts, researchers, technologists and artists to visualize lies. Centuries before big data, computer graphics and social media collided and gave us the datavis explosion, visualization was mostly a scientific tool for inquiry and documentation. Reproducing Lies Let’s set up some rules. We don’t spread visual lies by presenting false data. Should we legalize the killing of babies? I would hope most of you would say: No.

A statistical graphics course and statistical graphics advice Dean Eckles writes: Some of my coworkers at Facebook and I have worked with Udacity to create an online course on exploratory data analysis, including using data visualizations in R as part of EDA.The course has now launched at so anyone can take it for free. And Kaiser Fung has reviewed it. So definitely feel free to promote it! I didn’t have a chance to look at the course so instead I responded with some generic comments about eda and visualization (in no particular order): - Think of a graph as a comparison. - For example, Tukey described EDA as the search for the unexpected (or something like that, I don’t remember the exact quote). - Consider two extreme views: (a) a graph as a pure exploration, where you bring no expectations whatsoever to the data, (b) a graph as pure execution, you know what you want to show and then you show it. - No need to cram all information onto a single graph. - I like line plots.
